Home School Registration

Parents/guardians will notify their student's school letting them know they will be withdrawing their student and enrolling in home school.

Parents/guardians have 10 days of withdrawing their student from public/private school or from the start of the school year to then notify the Willamette Education Services District in writing of their intent to home school.

Parents/guardians must provide written notification of intent to home school a child.  Notifications must be provided to the Willamette ESD if you live in Yamhill, Polk or Marion County within 10 days of the date a student is withdrawn (or chooses to not enroll) in public/private school.  If the child is continuing to home school from the previous year, it is not necessary to provide written notice each school year to the Willamette ESD (ORS 581-021-0026).

Written notification can be sent to Willamette ESD 2611 Pringle Rd SE, Salem, OR 97302 or emailed to katie.grauer@wesd.org.

Parents/guardians will register their student(s) online or through the mail with the Willamette ESD for homeschooling.  No further paperwork needs to be submitted to the Willamette ESD when registering and using your account.
